1. INTRODUCTION

Lower Likhu Hydropower Project (LLHP) is a run-of-river (RoR) hydropower project which utilizes 118 m Gross Head and Design Discharge of 29.75 m3/s resulting an installed capacity of 28.1 MW. The entire project area (Headworks to Powerhouse) is located in Likhu Tamakoshi Rural Municipality (Saipu-2 and Bijulikot-4) of Ramechhap Province-3. Geographically, the project lies between longitudes 86°15’38” E to 86°13’17” E and latitudes 27°25’56” N to 27°22’47”N.

Lower Likhu Hydropower Project (LLHP) was identified by Swet Ganga Hydropower & Construction Ltd. which received Generation License from Department of Electricity Development (DoED), the then Ministry of Energy (MoEN), Government of Nepal (GoN on 2nd Baishak 2073 (14th April 2016) for its implementation. The license period of the project is from 28th Chaitra 2072 to 27th Chaitra 2107 B.S Swet Ganga has signed Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) on 14th Poush 2073 (29th Dec 2016).

The general arrangement of the project consist of Headworks, Headrace tunnel, Penstock, Powerhouse and Tailrace on the right bank of the river. A 53 m long Concrete gravity weir divert s design discharge of Likhu River into the side intake having four orifice with dimension 3.5 m long and 2.8 m height. The surplus discharge will be spilled from the Ogee profile of weir to downstream stilling basin at level 730.90 m. The undersluice chamber is divided into two chamber having opening dimension 6 m width and 6 m height. The discharge from intake passes into two chambered Gravel trap each having dimension 7.2 m length and 8 m width in which larger gravel of minimum diameter 5 mm gets trapped and flushed back into the river through flushing culvert of 2 m width and 1.5 m height. Two approach culverts each having 5 m width and 2.5 m height will convey water from Gravel trap to the individual bays of settling basin of length 65 m and width 14 m. The finer sediment accumulated in settling basin gets flushed by sediment flushing culvert of 2 m width and 1.5 m height.

A 313.50 m long and 3.75 m diameter steel headrace pipe will convey the design discharge from the conveyance tank, located immediately after the Settling basin to the Headrace tunnel. About 4965 m long and 16.50 m2 finish area (4.90 m diameter) Headrace tunnel followed by steel Penstock pipes of 217.5 m long and 3.75 m diameter and 36.5 m long of 2.65 m diameter, will then convey the design discharge to two generating units of the Powerhouse. The tail-water will be discharged back to the Likhu River through a 205 m long Tailrace culvert. The power will be evacuated through 27 km long, 132 kV transmission line to proposed new Khimti substation at Devitar.

As a statutory requirement of Environment Protection Act (EPA, 2053/1996), Environment Protection Rules (EPR, 2054/1997) and their amendments in 2065/2008, the Initial Environment Examination (IEE) study of the Lower Likhu Hydropower Project (LLHP) has been conducted and received approval from Ministry of Energy on 10th Baisakh 2070 (23rd March 2013).

For the construction, major work activities of LLHP have been categorized into different work packages as Civil, Hydro-mechanical, Electro-mechanical and Transmission line. It is scheduled that the entire project shall be completed in 3.5 years including testing and commissioning.
